Reconstructing Me

Every day won't be as productive as the next. That's just a simple reality of this process. And while this dream of mine persists, so too does life.  Which means short-term distractions can sometimes interrupt the daily pursuit of one's long-term goals.  That's okay.  I give myself permission to exist in the now while not so secretly residing in my future.

It's all a state of mind. 

A long as I embody the spirit of my dream in my every day life...I am moving forward in a productive way.  And here's why doing that matters:  it keeps me focused on something positive and fulfilling.  In turn, all of the other nonsense that would normally affect me on any given day, now has very little impact . That stuff just doesn't matter in the scheme of things.  The Blueprint of my Dream has no room for them.

The added benefit to embracing that outlook is that I become it.  My entire demeanor is different.  I exude a new, lighter energy.  Just when I least expected it, I am closer to being Me than I've ever been before. No longer am I bogged down by things that might normally stress me out...the things that over time, changed me.  They are inconsequential and have no place in my tomorrow. 

Instead, my heart is full of love - satiated by happy thoughts of baking...decorating...entertaining and the like.  All things that bring me closer to my true self.  Wouldn't it be nice if  in this quest for my dream, I discovered the Me inside myself?  The Me who went missing, but who's been there all along...

Sweet Dreams, 

Me
